Gov. John Bel Edwards said the fires and conditions in the state are unprecedented. He did a flyover of the area and spent a couple of hours with local responders in Singer Friday, near the Tiger Island wildfire.
The governor said the severe drought and fires have created a situation not seen for generations. He said just this month there have been 441 forest fires in Louisiana and more than 30,000 acres burned.
